Sadeqa is the generic name for mancala games known in the southwest of Ethiopia and nearby South Sudan. This particular variant is played by the Jimma who live in western Ethiopia. It was described as Sadéqa V (Game 84) by Richard Pankhurst, who stated that it used to be a popular pastime at the court of Abba Jifar. While the king had wooden boards called bolo sadéqa, boys simply dug holes in the ground, and women were not allowed to play the game at all.
